/**
 * This class defines the concept of a condition variable based on the 
 * Pthreads model that allows signaling between threads for more complex 
 * conditions than semaphores.
 * The general pattern for a condition variable is: 
 * 1. Define the condition variable and corresponding Mutex 
 *     Condition testCondition;
 *     Mutex testCondtionMutex; 
 *  
 * 2. Define the condition wait logic as a while loop and protect it with 
 * the mutex. 
 *  
 *     testConditionMutex.lock(); 
 *     while (testdata < 3 && !endOfTransaction) 
 *     {
 *         testCondition.wait(testConditionMutex)
 *     }
 *     testConditionMutex.unlock();
 *  
 * If the condition is true, execution continues.  If not, the wait is 
 * executed which unlocks the mutex and goes to sleep to wait for a signal  
 * on the definedcondition variable from another thread. Pthreads
 * DOES not guarantee that there will not be spurious signals so the  
 * condition wait loop MUST test for the condition. 
 * . . . 
 * 3. As part of some thread, define the signal function as follows. 
 * When the following signal code is executed, the condition variable in 
 * one thread in the wait condition will be  awakened. 
 *  
 *     testConditionMutex.lock();
 *     testCondition.signal();
 *     testCondition.unlock();
 *  
 * The user should be careful that the conditions are only modified under 
 * control of the mutex associated with the condition variable.
